Fitting

To fit this sling you will need to start by removing the compression fitting screws by unscrewing the head with a flathead screwdriver, slide the sling through your rifle mounting points.

Start at the top fixing of the sling by fitting the two flat head fittings through the two holes, finger tighten the fittings to allow for the lining up of the two holes then secure the screw but do not over tighten as the head of the screw will compress enough to grip the leather firmly in place, add a drop of thread lock temporary for a secure fit.

Repeat the process at the lower part of the sling but this time remember to add the sliding keeper before passing through the rifle mounts then back into the keeper, line up the desired holes to give the length required, again finger tighten the screws and once the holes are lined up tighten the screw head.

 Care

The leather can be cleaned with a good quality saddle soap and a soft cloth to buff.

Once cleaned use our recommended Sedgwick leather wax to all the leather parts and allow to dry. Once dry you can buff with a soft cloth or shoe brush for a deep sheen finish, cleaning and applying wax on a regular basis will keep the leather nourished and aid with weatherproofing.

We do stock saddle soap and wax in our website under the leather care section.
